Interlude

If Mary Alice seems a familiar face, she should be; she appeared in Little Miss Perfect, Al's contest entry back in March/April. There's another familiar face that pops up in this story, too, but I'll let that rest and not ruin it for you.

Let me say that Al has a real tour de force on his hands. I described the circumstances of BISMARCK RULES to Al as one big headache for Mary Alice until the close of the story. But, rest assured, just because the story concludes, doesn't mean it's over. Mary Alice has been a bad, bad girl. But I'll bet you can't disagree with her actions.
